If you could look like anything...anything at all....what would you look like? I'd be the wind. ...........It's easy to be someone's friend when all you need is someone to console you. It's much harder to be there for them when they're happy all the time. .............Even when I say nothing, it's a beautiful use of negative space.

in love  
Happy Superbowl! After a lot of drama about where to watch the game, I ended up back at my parents' house with them, a family friend, and my brother. Who, coincidentally, happen to be the four people in my life least interested in football. An actual conversation that happened tonight:

(right after the kickoff, when the Giants had possession of the ball):
Paul: So.. why isn't Tom Brady on the field?
Me: Because the Pats are on defense.
Paul: .... I'll pretend I know what that means.
Me: It means the Giants have the ball, so the Patriots are playing defense.. the quarterback is only going to be on the field when their team has the ball.
Paul: Oh... that makes sense.

Then he found a magazine and read for the entire second quarter, and left to go home two minutes before halftime. By the end of the game, though, I had my stepfather using actual football terms in a sentence, and I was really proud.

Also, as much as I dislike both the Patriots and the Giants, I'm glad the Giants won. I went into the game rooting for the Patriots because a) one of my co-workers really likes them and I don't want her to beat me up and b) because I hate the Giants more, but I couldn't be happy knowing they played a perfect season. So I'm happy they didn't, as mean as that sounds.

I wanted the Giants to win largely because everyone was acting like the Patriots had already won. The Boston Globe even had this ( http://www.amazon.com/19-0-Historic-Championship-Englands-Unbeatable/dp/1600781500/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1201611908&sr=1-1 ) waiting in the wings.

I actually was for the Giants as well, though I did half expect the Patriots to win.
